Blueberry cookies

Ok. Ok. I’ll admit. I had help on this one. The task was too difficult to accomplish by myself and so I enlisted the help of my pack of 3 wolves ;-). They were more than eager to chop almonds (with the BIG knife, hell yeah!). But most of all, they were eager to taste EVERYTHING. I was happy they didn’t go for the baking powder first… so I could get it out of the way.

Ingredients:

2 cups of flour

1/2 cup of almonds

1/2 cup of butter

1/2 teaspoon of salt

1/3 cup of milk

1 egg yolk

1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

zest of 1 lemon

1 cup sugar

1 cup fresh blueberries

2 teaspoons baking powder

Method:

have 😉 the almonds chopped and toasted and set them aside;

mix flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl;

cream the butter with the sugar, add the egg yolk, the vanilla extract, the lemon zest and the milk and then add the dry ingredients;

fold in the toasted almonds and the blueberries (tossed in flour);

leave in the fridge for at least 1 hour;

form balls the size of a ping pong ball and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes at 190°C, leave to cool on a rack and serve.

I love to eat and to cook. And is there anything better than having a cocktail or a glass of wine and some wonderful little nibbles at five o’clock?
Let’s face it, it’s always five o’clock somewhere in the world...
